We tasted our way along the Golden Mile and Black Sage Bench and beyond to bring you the best from wine country this season.
chardonnay 2014: Chardonnay is back big time, and now it’s trending to lightly oaked. Try this one from Tinhorn Creek’s incoming winemaker Andrew Windsor, that’s like liquid lemon biscotti. www.tinhorn.com ($17)
2012 mdc: Visiting Covert Farms in person is the best way to experience the wine, but this family-run operation keeps it real with an organic red blend named for the proprietor’s father. wineclub.covertfarms.ca ($21)
rose brut: Stoneboat Vineyards’ sparkling rose is a bone-dry celebration wine that won the top prize at the most recent Rosé Revolution event in Oliver Osoyoos. The perfect party wine. www.stoneboatvineyards.com ($25)
afraid of the dark 2014: A gold medal at the NorthWest Wine Summit was truly deserved by this aromatic white with a hit of nectarine from Moon Curser. www.mooncurser.com ($22)
2010 corner stone: 2010 was a very good year for River Stone Estate Winery, and some of its library wines are still available, such as this award-winning red. www.riverstoneestatewinery.ca ($38)
2013 merlot: As we head toward the holidays, it’s nice to get those notes of clove, cinnamon and vanilla on the finish of a red. Black Sage Vineyard’s merlot also has plum-pudding notes that will have you considering it for dessert. www.blacksagevineyard.ca ($20)
